What the crack repair includes
-
Assessing each crack
We tell shrinkage, thermal and structural cracks apart before starting work.

Raking out and cleaning
We open the crack into a V, remove loose material and clear the dust.

Flexible sealing
A flexible filler or mortar that moves with the wall without reopening.
-
Reinforcing mesh
Glass-fibre mesh embedded in mortar where cracks keep coming back.

Render reinstatement
Monocouche or render of the same type as the original, with a similar texture.

Final protection
Breathable paint or water repellent so water cannot get back in.
Façade cracks in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi: why they appear
In 1960s and 70s blocks in areas such as Sarrià and Les Tres Torres a horizontal crack at each floor level, where the frame meets the brickwork, is typical. We repair it on ropes or from the balconies once the residents' association has approved the work.
Before touching anything, on façades in areas such as Sant Gervasi - Galvany, Sant Gervasi - la Bonanova and El Putxet i el Farró we measure the width and direction of each crack and check whether it is still active. Diagonal cracks, cracks through the wall or cracks that keep growing go to an engineer before repair.
We protect pavements, windows and gardens, take down scaffolding or ropes at the end and leave the area clean. We repair façades nearby too: Les Corts, Gràcia and Horta-Guinardó.

Frequently asked questions
01Exterior render crack repair in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, in areas such as Sarrià, Les Tres Torres, Sant Gervasi - Galvany, Sant Gervasi - la Bonanova, El Putxet i el Farró, Vallvidrera, El Tibidabo and Les Planes, and also nearby: Les Corts, Gràcia and Horta-Guinardó. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Are all façade cracks serious?
No. Most come from shrinkage or thermal movement in the render and are repaired with sealing and mesh. If we see diagonal cracks, cracks running through the wall or cracks that keep growing, we recommend having a surveyor check the structure first.
03Why is filling the crack not enough?
If the crack is not opened up and sealed with a flexible material, movement in the wall makes it show again. That is why we rake it out, clean it and add mesh where cracks keep recurring.
04Will the repair be visible?
We match the texture of the render as closely as we can, but new colour almost always stands out. That is why we usually recommend repainting the whole section afterwards.
